A major drawback of conventional impression techniques used for customizing facial prostheses is the fact that pressure applied deforms soft tissue, thus reducing accuracy and causing patient discomfort. A possible solution is the use of optical 3-D coordinate measuring techniques, such as the fringe projection technique, which enables precise and contact-free recording of facial surfaces. The application of this method is demonstrated on a patient who lost his left eye and part of the jaw bone during surgery for cancer. 3-D CAD software that supports the construction of a facial prosthesis from the data obtained has been developed. For this purpose, spline functions are used to define border curves, and the intact half of the face is used as a model for the prosthetic surface. The resulting digital data are used to construct first a model made of synthetic resin, and then a final wax model with the aid of rapid prototyping techniques.
